Answer:

Linear function:y=1500x+5000

x- Independent variable

y- Dependent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Climbers start climbing at an elevation of height =5000 ft

The steady rate at which climbers start climbing=1500 ft/h

We have to find the independent variable and dependent variable.

Let time taken by climbers=x hours

In 1 hour, climbers cover distance =1500 ft

In x hours , climber cover distance=1500x ft

According to question

The total distance y covered by climber in x hours

y=1500x+5000

This is required linear function.

We can see that

x does not depend on any other quantity.Therefore, x is independent variable .

When the value of x changes then the value of y is also change.

It means the value of y depends on the value of x.

Therefore, y is dependent variable.

Bilal's fishing line was on a spool with a radius of 4cm. Suddenly, a fish pulled on the line, and the spool spun 16 times befor
Aleks [24]

First, I'd like to say that this question is flawed because the diameter of the spool changes as you pull the line out. Some would argue it's negligible I suppose.

At any rate, assuming there's a magic spool where the diameter doesn't change, let's find the cicumference so we can find the length of one wrap around the spool.

circumference = 2*pi*r = 2 * pi * 4cm = about 25.133 cm

Now if it turns 16 times we'll have 16 times the circumference.

16 * (25.133 cm)

= 402.128 cm
